Fair And Square made a promising debut back in April but it’s been mostly downhill since. GOLDENHURST was a close third behind the useful Canonized at Goodwood in the same month and recaptured that form in a novice event here 11 days ago. He’s running in only his second handicap and Liam Browne takes off a handy 7lb. Black Hill Storm has only won a seller and a claimer so far and was beaten 11 lengths on his nursery debut but Brown Owl wasn't beaten far at Lingfield at the start of the month and is only a pound higher while Therehegoes never seems to run a bad race. Chepstow winner Devon Envoy is also respected.
